Hey Newschoolers, I'm looking for a new pair of skis for this winter so I'll share a little about me...
I'm turning 18 this October, I'd say I'm a very good to expert skier but I've not had much success in buying my last few pairs of skis. in the past years I've had the rossignol scratch skis that I didn't like at all, and last year I bought the Line Afterbang ( i had the middle size forgot the length on that one) mounted with griffons that I found much too heavy and were terrible at taking the smallest turns. This year I'll be taking a gap year before college and I'll be spending the whole ski season (Mid December to April) in a huge resort in switzerland called verbier. this resort is where the freeride world tour final happens and has a LOT of snow every season. This is why I'd be looking for a fun ski that floats through the pow but would still perform better than my afterbangs on the regular slopes of the resort since I'm going to be a ski instructor in the mornings over the season to help pay for the trip. Other things to know is that there isn't really a price range but I'd like to keep it to under 800 or so dollars, and I'm not ready to pay more than 300 dollars for bindings. Lastly, I'd like a ski that was at least 100 underfoot. I probably should also say that one ski that's been sticking out for me right now is the 172 surface watch life. Alright that's it now!!!
thx everyone for taking the time to read and leaving an answer, I really appreciate it.
